Increasingly, they all seem to PNP configure --- with very little choice or information on how to use their 'SB' emulation mode. I'm not positive what can be done here (like if it's possible to look through the PNP information to determine if PNP sound cards are present), but not having a history of old sound cards to draw on, I'm finding it very hard to find one that I can use. I suppose something that configs with plain old jumpers would be ideal... but I don't see where I can get that anymore. I'd even settle for 'buy here' advice... if the price were acceptable. >How-To-Repeat: Fairly easy :). >Fix: None known. >Release-Note: >Audit-Trail: From: Sak Atak To: freebsd-gnats-submit@freebsd.org, dgilbert@velocet.ca Cc: Subject: Re: kern/5348: Difficult to find supported sound card Date: Sun, 25 Jan 1998 00:47:51 -0500 My gravis ultrasound (16?) seems to work great under freebsd 2.2.5. Its not pnp, but I don't know whether or not its readily availableon the market. I have everything working but midi, but then that didn't exactly happen easily.
